Monkey Racing rally body bulk order
 
I talked to Michal of Monkey racing and he said the bodies should be done soon.

And here is the deal. The bodies are roughly 50.00 USD each. Shipping is 35.00 USD for 5 bodies in one box.

He also offers decal packs (redbull, etc.) Which are roughly 30.00 a set.

Bodies come with basic decals.
Here is what he sent out from the first batch we got from him.

Once the bodies are available I will get the totals from Monkey Racing and ask for everyone to send the money VIA paypal to me and have everything shipped to Lakewood, then we can meet to get your body, pick them up at the next event or I can drop them off at The Crawl Space. The first order we did took roughly two weeks from order to delivery.

Here are some photos of finished bodies from Monkey Racing.

These bodies are seldom available and chances are we will get to order bodies from these guys maybe once a year or less. So if you are on the fence, jump on it because chances are you might not get another chance. And yes they are very durable. No cracking our creasing in the one I have yet, whereas my Tamiya bodies already have cracks or breaks after this much running.

We have the Colorado Rally Championship thread in the Colorado section, plus we have a thread in the Rally section that tracks, scores, photos and videos for everyone too see.

And some older Ken Block ones, but he didn't give me a photo of those and said you can get those cheaper on R2hobbies.

Seriously! It makes me sick. :ror: I am almost to the point of asking Michal to do up a Jipo car body for me.

Re: Monkey Racing rally body bulk order
 
when I get a body:
-"this time I'm going to go slow and make the best body ever"
-"I'm doing alright still, it won't be perfect but hopefully no one will notice"
-"shit"
-"oh well I'm going to use this one anyway, so I don't want it to be perfect"
-........
-"I need a new body"

Ok one of each. i guess since i cant seem to find the time to get my 1st DS3 body painted. find out the cost of the painted & decal Jipo body, it might be the only way i can get mine done:lmao:

Ty, I changed my mind. please just order 2 of the DS3 bodies for me. i would like to wait to see what kind of wheel offsets are needed for the ford bodies. if the ford bodies use the same offset's, i will get one on the next round. besides i am more of a Citroen fan than a Ford fan "thumbsup"

also i would like to get 1 of the red bull sticker sheets. they are a little expensive, but i would like to set up one of the bodies like the Total paint scheme.

I can put you in on the order if you like. Just let me know, because money will be due in the next week or two.

It looks like the offset will be the same as the DS3. The Block body is running 0 offset wheels, but the car they run is a couple mm wider then the XV-01, so probably a +2 offset for either body.

My ds3 has +6 in the rear and +3 in the front

Yeah and I just run +2 front and rear and is fine for me.

Re: Monkey Racing rally body bulk order
 
So I would be looking at about $60 for the fiesta?

Correct. Could be a couple dollars more or less. It just depends how full all the orders are because they ship in groups of 5 bodies.

I may have to hold off till after the holidays.

TURTLE 11-21-2013 04:34 PM

Re: Monkey Racing rally body bulk order
 
No worries. May not be anything available though. These bodies are literally made in a garage in the Czech Republic and only a hand full are made.
